Rainer:

What this means is that you have not contributed any films to the LSA
Microfilm Library since 1990 (and neither has anyone else!).  

What it may imply is that microfilm is obsolescent or even obsolete as a
format for data archiving and transmittal.  Some people are finding that
film reader-printers are just not available.

Should the LSA digitize all the films in the Library?  Nice idea. 
Requires quite a bit of (volunteer?) time by someone.  Then what?  Sell
them on CD or by file download?   May run into objections from the
libraries that own the original publications and could be damaging to
publishing houses like Minkoff that sell facsimiles.

Other suggestions?
